Multiplexed Human Gene Expression Analysis Reveals a Central Role of the TLR/mTOR/PPARγ and NFkB Axes in Burn and Inhalation Injury-Induced Changes in Systemic Immunometabolism and Long-Term Patient Outcomes.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Burn patients are subject to significant acute immune and metabolic dysfunction. Concomitant inhalation injury increases mortality by 20%. In order to identify specific immune and metabolic signaling pathways in burn (B), inhalation (I), and combined burn-inhalation (BI) injury, unbiased nanoString multiplex technology was used to investigate gene expression within peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from burn patients, with and without inhalation injury. PBMCs were collected from 36 injured patients and 12 healthy, non-burned controls within 72 h of injury. mRNA was isolated and hybridized with probes for 1342 genes related to general immunology and cellular metabolism. From these specific gene patterns, specific cellular perturbations and signaling pathways were inferred using robust bioinformatic tools. In both B and BI injuries, elements of mTOR, PPARγ, TLR, and NF-kB signaling pathways were significantly altered within PBMC after injury compared to PBMC from the healthy control group. Using linear regression modeling, (1) DEPTOR, LAMTOR5, PPARγ, and RPTOR significantly correlated with patient BMI; (2) RPTOR significantly correlated with patient length of stay, and (3) MRC1 significantly correlated with the eventual risk of patient mortality. Identification of mediators of this immunometabolic response that can act as biomarkers and/or therapeutic targets could ultimately aid the management of burn patients.
